Abstract
The neuropil is a complicated 3D tangle of neural and glial processes. Recent advances in microconnectomics has made it possible to reconstruct neural circuits from serial-section electron microscopy at the micron scale. Electron microscopy allows even higher resolution reconstructions on the nanometer scale. Nanoconnectomic reconstructions approaching molecular resolution allow us to explore the topology of extracellular space and the precision with which synapses are modified by patterns of neural activity.
